Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation
Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation physicians diagnose and treat pain and restore maximum function lost through injury, illness or disabling conditions. Diagnosis may include a variety of tests and studies, including diagnostic ultrasound, electromyography and nerve conduction studies.
The focus of our specialist is on developing a comprehensive program to put the pieces of your life back together after injury or disease – without surgery. We seek to optimize your health and treat the whole person. Many of our patients also are taught techniques, exercises and therapies that they can do practice at home.
